Sorry meant the load rating I need no less than a 120 which is rated at 1,400 kg per tyre to be legal

Hi Mick,
I follow your drift - try here they seem to let you look through different load ratings and sizes.

I've heard enough about tyre's with my own for the day.

Hope you find your info and tyre's there.

Ah I see, I think, but don't quote me but the larger sizes I've read before it mentions they are exempt.
Quite exactly what they mean by that I don't know, some have very sketchy info. Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧

Yikes, what are you putting them on to need nearly 3t across an axle? I can only assume a trailer?

That weight is well into van tyre territory only I'd have thought.

On my 130 it's what they come with as standard so need to stick to it for insurance purposes

Mick does use his 130 for work purposes and he does carry the odd oz.or two of metal in the back of his 130.

Mick I would suggest you speak to Andy at AJS Tyres on 01737 241370. He knows one or two things about tyres.
